FOREIGN BIDDERS:  Please refer to the information regarding shipping at the end of the Auction Description!

PLEASE NOTE: 78 RPM RECORDS ARE VERY FRAGILE!  THEY MUST BE PACKED AND SHIPPED WITH GREATER CARE THAN LP’s OR 45’s. I TAKE GREAT CARE IN PACKING AND SHIPPING 78’s, USING PLENTY OF CUSHIONING MATERIALS AND STRONG CARTONS TO PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT AND ASSURE YOUR SATISFACTION. I HAVE NEVER LOST ONE TO DAMAGE IN TRANSIT.

Here is an unusual format for a 78 RPM album. It is Columbia Album C-201 from 1950. It contains 4 high quality Columbia 78 RPM records in a box type album. The records are housed in 4 individual envelopes or pockets that are, in turn, joined together, and then hinged to the central hinge of the cover using a metal rod and metal clamps. If you view my pictures, you may think the hinge area is taped at the upper and bottom corners but what you see there is the metal of the clamps that holds the hinge in place. 

The box is in wonderful NM condition, especially considering its age. It does appear to have a handwritten date on the inside front cover. It has no fading of its coloration and no obvious wear. The hinge is solid and tight. None of the corners are torn or split. There is little, if any wear to edges and corners. 

The records are, likewise, in NM condition. I see only very light rubs or scuffs and some minimal paper loss to a couple labels. Any scratches are few and far between and appear to be very light.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY! 

PAYMENT:

I only accept payment through PayPal, unless you have made other arrangements with me prior to bidding.

Payment should be made promptly on “Buy It Now” items and should be made soon after your receipt of an Invoice following the end of a regular Auction. However, see below if you are buying more than one item.

SHIPPING:

Domestic (USA) bidders: I will combine items purchased within one week for shipping savings. In the event you are bidding on more than one item or plan to do a “Buy It Now” on more than one item, please do not pay for any single item until I have sent you a combined Invoice for all of your purchases. Letting me know the reason for any delay would be appreciated.

Foreign bidders: I’m sorry, but eBay’s present “Global Shipping Program" rules do not provide for combined shipping. If you want to buy more than 1 similar item, message me with specifics and I will list them together as a “Buy It Now” and alert you so you can then complete the transaction and all similar items can be invoiced and shipped together.
